Application for Conveyance of Mineral Interest; Montana

AGENCY: Bureau of Land Management, Interior.

ACTION: Notice.

-----------------------------------------------------------------------

SUMMARY: Notice is given that, pursuant to Section 209b of the Federal 
Land Policy and Management Act of 1976 (43 U.S.C. 1719(b)), Ms. 
Margaret I. Alm has applied to purchase the mineral estate described as 
follows:

Principal Meridian, Montana

T. 10 N., R. 4 W.,
    Sec. 33, lot 1, N\1/2\NE\1/4\, SW\1/4\NE\1/4\, NE\1/4\NW\1/4\, 
E\1/2\SE\1/4\, and SW\1/4\SE\1/4\.

    Containing 305.14 acres in Lewis and Clark County.

    The mineral interest will be conveyed in whole or in part upon 
favorable mineral examination.
    The purpose is to allow consolidation of surface and subsurface 
mineral ownership where there are no known mineral values or in those 
instances where the United States mineral reservation interferes with 
or precludes appropriate nonmineral development and such development is 
a more beneficial use of the land than the mineral development.

FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT: Deborah Sorg, BLM Montana State 
Office, P.O. Box 36800, Billings, Montana 59107, 406-896-5045.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: Upon publication of this notice in the 
Federal Register as provided in 43 CFR 2720.1-1(b), the mineral 
interests within the

legal description given above will be segregated to the extent that

upon issuance of a conveyance document, final rejection of the 
application, or 2 years from the date of filing of the application, 
April 28, 1999, whichever occurs first.

    Dated: February 25, 2000.
